Looking for Post-Op Rehab in Southern Jacksonville, NC?

Surgery is a highly invasive procedure, so when it comes to treating an injury or condition, many medical professionals prefer non-surgical treatments. However, in many cases, surgery is the best option for treatment. If this is the case for you, then you should consider finding a physical therapist for post-op rehab.

Surgery takes a physical toll on your body that requires a long and challenging recovery time. While recovering, you may experience difficulties doing things that used to be simple, like walking or getting dressed.

The physical therapists at Peak Performance Physical Therapy in Jacksonville, NC, can help you recover from your surgery and feel independent again.

How does physical therapy help with post-op rehab?

If you had it your way, you’d probably want to stay in bed and rest after your surgery until you felt like moving again. While resting is an important part of recovery, it’s also important to receive professionally guided therapy.

Post-op rehab from Peak Performance Physical Therapy can help you:

Reduce pain

Regain strength and flexibility

Regain balance and range of motion

Our team understands your need to live independently again so you can get back to your daily life and favorite activities. We provide patient education for safely completing tasks like getting dressed or going to the bathroom on your own again.

You can always expect personal care from the staff at Peak Performance Physical Therapy. Your physical therapist will examine your condition and review your medical history, age and fitness levels to come up with a treatment that works for you.

Many of the techniques we use during post-op rehabilitation include some of the following:

Stretching and exercising your muscles and ligaments

Cold and hot treatments

Electrical stimulation

Dry needling

Aquatic therapy and more

You should also speak with a physical therapist about pre-surgical rehabilitation. If you know about your surgery far enough in advance, pre-op therapy can strengthen the body to help prepare it for recovery.
